Welcome! I'm glad you found Handley's Eastern Shore Maryland Genealogy Project, and I hope you find the information here to be useful to you in your efforts to trace your Eastern Shore family. There's lots to see here, no matter what lines you're researching. The menu at left will help you start on your journey!

My own specific interest in Eastern Shore genealogy revolves around the MEZICK family and the collateral lines that married in to that group. If you have an interest in Eastern Shore genealogy, or the MEZICK or MESSICK surname, feel free to take advantage of the mailing lists and message boards below:

Please note . . . I am unable to reply to requests for personal research. I'm not a professional genealogist, and my efforts in my own ancestor quest as well as supporting my web sites are as much time as I can spare away from my own family and job. Please take some time to browse through this website! You will learn about many resources and other types of help that are available to you.
